Chapter 3: Bloodstains

The lower part of the small building has been surrounded by a cordon, the unit door is black and hollow, the original wooden door frame only has a beam still fixed there, and the rest of the parts have long been missing, He Ning and Tom Li drilled through the cordon and walked into the black door, and there was a damp and unpleasant smell, mixed with a frowning fishy smell, through the light outside, you can see the place where the ground of the cramped staircase meets the wall, there are white traces left after the liquid is dried, He Ning knows that it was left by someone running here to go to the toilet at night, which is no wonder the smell in the stairwell is so mixed and unpleasant。 Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

This kind of old building is relatively old, the stairs have long been worn out, the edges have been very smooth, stepping on the soles of the feet feel as if something is greasy and slippery, fortunately, the crime scene is on the second floor, they don't need to walk in the stairwell for a long time. The door of the crime scene was open, and as soon as he walked to the door, he smelled a strong smell of blood, and Tang Li took out the shoe covers and gloves he was used to carrying, took a pair for He Ning, and put them on himself, and the two of them cautiously entered the crime scene.

The scene of the crime is a residential house of about 60 square meters, the entrance door is about the center of the living room, and there is a room on the left and right, because the living room itself has no windows to let in light, so the lighting has been turned on, and the blood stains on the milky white tiles on the ground look even more dazzling.

There were a few blood stains on the floor of the living room, very little, as if they had been touched by something and accidentally stuck to the ground, these blood stains were carefully marked one by one, Hening and Tang Li paid attention to their feet, and walked into one of the rooms, this is a bedroom, the bedroom is not big, inside is a double bed, a simple computer desk, the table is bare, only a power cord is hanging crumblingly next to the table, next to the computer desk is a chair, the cloth on the chair is a little worn, revealing the sponge below。

In addition, there is a double-door cabinet in the bedroom, the door of the cabinet is open, and the clothes inside are piled up messily, and some have fallen to the ground, looking like they have been turned over indiscriminately.

The body of the deceased was laid out in the double bed, and the spread quilt was lifted to the side, and there were many blood splatters on it, and the sheets were wet with blood, and the thick fishy smell was emitted from here.

The deceased was a man who was wearing only a pair of boxer briefs, his upper body was barebacked, his arms were stretched out at his sides, more than half of his legs were out of the bed, and both feet were hanging on the ground.

The male deceased had many wounds on his body, the most striking of which was a deep wound on his neck, and there was a large area of coagulated blood scabs around the wound, and judging from the position, the large pool of blood on the bed sheet was related to this wound. In addition to this wound on the neck, there was also a wound on the deceased's abdomen, as if he had been stabbed by a knife, the deceased's two hands, palms facing upwards, and there were obvious wounds on the palms, the wound looked a little messy, and the flesh and blood were blurred.

With the previous experience of appearing at the scene, such an ordinary criminal crime scene is no longer lethal to He Ning, she can deal with it completely, so she didn't feel any discomfort when she saw the body of the male deceased, let alone frightened. When she saw that the medical examiners were examining the body, she did not come forward to disturb, and stood with Tang Li and carefully observed the male deceased.

This person looks very young, should be about the same age as He Ning, his body is relatively stocky, especially the flesh on his stomach is thicker, the expression on his face has a look of horror, and as the vital signs disappear, this expression also froze on his face, as if it showed what he had experienced before he died.

The current weather, although it has warmed up a little, but generally speaking, it is still relatively cold, at such a temperature, no one in normal people will not wear only a piece of underwear at home that can only cover shame, can not keep warm and walk around, the bed is scattered, the deceased is only wearing a pair of boxer underwear, the deceased should be attacked at night, or this morning, he has not had time to get up, found that something is wrong, just got up, encountered a fatal attack, the body fell back to the bed, and never got up again。

The two men waited for a while, until the medical examiners were a little free, and then went over to inquire about the situation.

"The deceased must have been between 20 and 25 years old," Dr. Liu told them, "The cause of death was hemorrhagic shock, and the fatal wound was a knife wound in the neck, which cut the jugular vein, and the carotid artery was also cut, so you see, there were large areas of blood at the scene, and some of them were splattered." Judging from the degree of coagulation of the blood loss under the deceased's body, as well as the corpse itself, the corpse temperature, zombie and other aspects, the time of death should have been in the night before or early in the morning. ”

"Forensic Doctor Liu, what's the matter with the knife wound on the deceased's palm?" He Ning pointed to the messy knife wound in the male deceased's palm, "Yes...... Is it caused by snatching the knife?"

"Yes, it was caused by snatching the knife, it should be the wound caused by the deceased holding the knife with his hand in a hurry in order to resist the attack of the other party, and when he tore with the murderer and wanted to take the knife down," Forensic Doctor Liu nodded, agreeing with He Ning's guess, "It is estimated that the snatching of the knife should have failed, so it caused a wound on the neck." ”

"Are there any other important discoveries?" asked Tonic .

Forensic Doctor Liu shook his head: "Not for the time being, this case is based on my experience, like a burglary turned into a homicide case, it may be that the deceased was awakened by the burglary in his sleep, the two sides fought, and the other party showed the murder weapon in order to get rid of the control and entanglement of the deceased, as for whether he wanted to kill the deceased to avoid the deceased from calling the police, or killed by mistake during the fight, this has to go back to the neck wound for a more detailed examination and analysis, but it doesn't feel complicated, it should not be difficult to draw conclusions." ”

He Ning and Tang Li listened to Forensic Doctor Liu's words, and they were also slightly relieved, after all, it had just ended the New Year, and everyone was still immersed in the atmosphere of the New Year's rest.

Forensic Doctor Liu also looked at the clothes of the two people by the way, generally speaking, when they went out of the scene, for the convenience of their movements, they would try to dress up shortly, and rarely wore long clothes such as coats and windbreakers, and now He Ning and Tang Li in front of them were wearing knee-length coats, and Forensic Doctor Liu understood at a glance.

"You two rushed over after getting a notice directly from outside, right?" Forensic Doctor Liu asked, "In the past few days of the Chinese New Year, I will gather relatives and friends, is it not lively enough, and I was pulled back by the case?"

"It's okay, I just happened to come back from my home in City C, and I came directly after receiving the letter. Forensic Doctor Liu must have thrown everyone in his family down and came to work overtime, right?" He Ning smiled at Forensic Doctor Liu.

Forensic Doctor Liu nodded: "Yes, but after so many years, the family has also gotten used to it." ”

Tang Li and He Ning didn't talk much with Forensic Doctor Liu, after all, such an occasion was not suitable, Forensic Doctor Liu continued to deal with the work within his scope of responsibility, and the two of them also looked around the house.

"On this computer desk, there should have been a laptop. Tang Li pointed to the computer desk where only one power cord was left, and said to He Ning, "There are traces here." ”

He Ning took a look, it is true, this computer desk is relatively simple, iron spray paint, there are many hollow round holes on the desktop to help dissipate heat, there is a pull plate of the same material under the thin desktop, the computer desk is sky blue, because a small hole on the top is very dense, it looks a little dazzling, you have to get closer to see it, on the desktop that is not too big, there is a rectangular mark, the blue in the middle is cleaner, there is some dust and the like around, the pull plate under the desktop is dirtier, not only dust and soot, but also some sticky stains, like dry drink traces。

"It's not just a computer, it's a laptop, so there's no need to use the pull plate underneath, which was supposed to be used as a utility rack before. He Ning walked over, bent down and looked at the transformer on the ground below the power line, "The brand of the computer is not bad, and the price is estimated to be not too cheap." ”

"This person usually spends a lot of time on the computer. Tonic pointed to the seat next to him, the worn surface of the seat, and the exposed sponge, which was enough to show how long the person usually sat on it, it seemed that he might be a so-called otaku and a networm.

He Ning went to the living room and asked a colleague of criminal skills if there were any signs of picking the door lock.

"There are no obvious traces of lockpicking, it may be technical unlocking," replied a colleague of criminal skills, "and this door is too primitive and too broken, and there is no need for high lockpicking skills. But one thing is quite strange, the kitchen window is open, and we just found a little blood on the windowsill. ”

"Let's go, let's see. When Tonic heard this, he motioned to Hening.

He Ning nodded, and the two of them walked towards the kitchen.

The kitchen is in a corner of the house, and the distance from the bedroom of the corpse is relatively far, and the distance from the corresponding other room is relatively close, the two doors are at a ninety degree angle, when He Ning and Tang Li went to the kitchen, while carefully bypassing the few blood stains in the living room, they also looked into the other room by the way, and found that the other room was full of clutter, messy, as if there was no use at all, so the two of them did not go in, and went directly to the kitchen.

As soon as I walked into the kitchen, I really felt that the temperature here was significantly lower than that of the living room and bedroom, and the air seemed to be a lot fresher, without the smell of blood in the nose, the kitchen area was very small, and it was already crowded when two people stood side by side, and they had to lean against the wall, and a small window inside was open, and there was indeed a small blood stain on the windowsill, which had completely dried up, and the shape was not regular, and it was faint, He Ning and Tang Li looked at it for a long time, and they really couldn't see why there was a small piece of blood in such a shape, it looked like it was accidentally stained, but except for that small piece, there was no other blood stain。

"This season, how could you think of leaving the window wide open?" He Ning felt a little strange.

Tonic didn't think it was any surprise, because he had already found the answer in the kitchen. He gestured to Hening, then pointed to the kitchen counter not far from the window, and then to the ceiling above his head.

He Ning looked in the direction he indicated, and saw a pot on top of the stove, and there was a layer of black stuff in the pot, He Ning cautiously approached and sniffed it, and smelled a strong mushy smell, it seemed that it was burnt when making food, and it was very badly burnt. She looked up at the ceiling again, and there was a smoke alarm flashing on the ceiling.

"In such an old building, there are actually smoke alarms?" He Ning felt a little surprised.

Tang Li has a little understanding of this matter: "These old buildings in the old city had a serious fire accident before, which caused deaths, and then these buildings were renovated with natural gas, and fire smoke alarms were installed, about two years ago." ”

More than two years ago, she was still in school, and she had never been to City A at all, so it was normal to not know, He Ning was relieved after hearing it, and combined with these two points, she also understood why the kitchen window was open, it must have been the deceased who was cooking before, but I don't know why it was scorched, because the smoke was too heavy, the alarm began to alarm, in order to calm the alarm, the deceased opened the kitchen window to ventilate, and then why did not close the window, it is difficult to say.

"But......" He Ning stretched out his hand and carefully measured the narrow window, "Unless this window is a child under the age of five or six, any normal adult can't get in and out easily, if you let me go out of here now, I have to turn sideways to do it." Besides, even on the second floor, it's not realistic to jump directly from the window, and it is inevitable that people will be seen if you climb in and out, and I don't think the murderer would enter the room through this open window. There is no blood stain in the living room at all, but there is such a small piece on the windowsill, which really makes some sense. (To be continued.) )
